An introduction is made by paraphrasing the question. Paraphrasing can be done again in two ways. Sometimes you have two graphs in the same question. Could you talk about both graphs using the words former and later? Try to talk about what type of graph you see, whether it is a line graph or a tabular representation. An introduction and an overview are the two most important components of task one. The examiners understand the kind of quality one has delivered by reading these two parts. The body paragraphs will only suggest the figures or numbers.
First, keep the structure as in the question and flip the words or vocabulary. Try to use the maximum number of new words in your vocabulary and not just copy-paste from the question.
The second way is by changing the structure of the question and using indirect or passive speech. This will give extra confidence to the examiner that you have a command of the language.
Let’s look at the question below to understand how paraphrasing is done using the first method.
Sample Response: The bar graph illustrates the data about the trade of dairy and meat products and travel that is done internationally by Southland starting for the years 2000 and 2001 with a forecast for the year 2025.
Now in this, I have not changed the structure of the thesis statement (question). The subject-object and the verb remain in their positions.
